Ingredients

Veggie Rice

  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 1 1/2 cups boiling water
  • 250g frozen peas
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 courgette
  • 1/2 pack baby spinach

Pork

  • 1 pack pork glaze
  • 3 Tbsp water
  • 1 pack pork scotch steaks

Rice Dressing

  • 2 Tbsp sweet chilli sauce
  • Zest of 1/2 lemon
  • Juice of 1 lemon
  • 1 tsp vinegar
  • 2 tsp mustard

Steps

  1. Cook rice Bring a full kettle to the boil. Combine rice, boiling water measure and a pinch of salt in a pot and bring to the boil with the lid on. Once boiling, reduce to lowest heat to cook for 12 minutes. After 12 minutes, add peas, then turn off heat and steam, covered, for 5 more minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
  2. Prep veggies and glaze Grate carrot and courgette and thinly slice spinach and add to a bowl. In another bowl, combine pork glaze and water. Set aside.
  3. Cook pork Heat a drizzle of oil in a fry-pan on high heat. Pat pork dry and season. Cook pork for 2 minutes each side, (they will finish cooking with the glaze). Turn up on fat side and cook for 1 minute. Rest covered, for a few minutes, before slicing 1cm-thick against the grain. Reserve pan and cooking juices.
  4. Finish veggie rice When rice and peas are cooked, add to bowl with veggies along with all rice dressing ingredients. Stir well to combine and season to taste.
  5. Finish pork Return pan to high heat with a drizzle of oil. Add sliced pork to pan and cook for 1 minute. Pour over the glaze, turn off heat and allow to bubble for 30 seconds-1 minute, until glaze has thickened and pork is cooked. Add a splash more water if you prefer a thinner sauce.
  6. Serve rice topped with glazed pork.
